62 migrants in two boats crossed the Channel yesterday, taking the total for this year to more than 1,500 people.

The Middle Ages were not a dark, dreary, muddy and dirty hellscape. People were not covered in filth, and wearing torn up rags for clothes. People loved wearing bright colors.

Vast amounts of money have been made out of an ideology that's left devastation in its wake. 'Find the real you through lifelong dependence on hormones, kids! Buy a brand new body!' Supposed left wingers have cheered on a manifestation of capitalism in its most sociopathic form.

This 'why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?' line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous. Gender ideology has undermined freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, and women's and girls' safety, privacy and dignity. It's also caused irreparable physical damage to vulnerable kids. Nobody voted for it, the vast majority of people disagree with it, yet it has been imposed, top down, by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities and even the police. Its activists have threatened and enacted violence on those who've dared oppose it. People have been defamed and discriminated against for questioning it. Jobs have been lost and lives have been ruined, all for the crime of knowing that sex is real and matters. When the smoke clears, it will be only too evident that this was never about a so-called vulnerable minority, notwithstanding the fact that some very vulnerable people have been harmed. The power dynamics underpinning our society have been reinforced, not dismantled. The loudest voices throughout this entire fiasco have been people insulated from consequences by their wealth and/or status. They aren't likely to find themselves locked in a prison cell with a 6'4" rapist who's decided his name's now Dolores. They don't need state-funded rape crisis centres, nor do they ever frequent high street changing rooms. They simper from talk show sofas about those nasty far-right bigots who don't want penises swinging around the girls' showers, secure in the knowledge that their private pool remains the safe place it always was. Those who've benefited most from gender identity ideology are men, both trans-identified and not. Some have been rewarded for having a cross-dressing kink by access to all spaces previously reserved for women. Others have parlayed their delicious new victim status into an excuse to threaten, assault and harass women. Non-trans-identified leftybros have found a magnificent platform from which to display their own impeccably progressive credentials, by jeering and sneering at the needs of women and girls, all while patting themselves on the back for giving away rights that aren't theirs. The actual victims in this mess have been women and children, especially the most vulnerable, gay people who've resisted the movement and paid a horrible price, and regular people working in environments where one misplaced pronoun could see you vilified or constructively dismissed. Do not tell me this is about a tiny minority. This movement has impacted society in disastrous ways, and if you had any sense, you'd be quietly deleting every trace of activist mantras, ad hominem attacks, false equivalence and circular arguments from your X feeds, because the day is fast approaching when you'll want to pretend you always saw through the craziness and never believed it for a second.

Went to visit QMC, part of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, which is one of the most dire examples of how a long-standing lack of capital spending is being felt across the NHS.

MSM has done numerous ‘woe me’ pieces on biological males in women’s sport. Every single one of them an extremely mediocre male athlete who’s ‘transitioned’ & not cared one jot whose rights they trampled on to win races meant for females. However not ONE - that’s not one single tv feature has been done on the girls pushed aside in their own category of sport, losing scholarships, medals, places on teams, dignity & privacy in a changing room, after years of training & sacrifices! This was exactly what happened for twenty years when anyone that spoke out against what the GDR were doing to their female athletes. My dad, still a swim coach at 90, tried to raise awareness. Every single person poolside & trackside knew they were cheating. The IOC knew. Nothing was done. Dad was never selected as a GB coach as punishment despite having the ONLY individual female medalist of the whole 1980 games (little old me!) for Team GB. Yet here we are again. I’m embarrassed & ashamed we’ve learnt nothing. Years later I often hear ‘how did this happen’ I say because people kept their heads down & did what was easy not what was right. Little girls deserve fair sport, Sunday afternoon golf ladies deserve fair sport. Female boxers absolutely deserve never to be put in a boxing ring with a biological male… which I think is criminal negligence

Congratulations to every single person on the left who’s been campaigning to destroy women’s and girls’ rights. Without you, there’d be no images like this.
